If you were to be generalist, what is something you dislike about men? As in something that can be fixed, not a unchangeable trait.

That's tough. I would say stubbornness when it comes to going to doctors. Have had male relatives die because they didn't want to go get a check up when they weren't feeling well. That "I'll just tough it out" attitude cut years off their lives. They argue that it's because they don't want to inconvenience anyone, when really it's stubborn and selfish.

As someone who can relate, I would say that more than stubborn or selfish, it's also a lot of fear. When you don't know for sure something is wrong, then you can live life without having to confront it head on. It is selfish for sure, but it comes from fear more than it does from pride.

It's a difficult balance to find honestly. I don't know if it's specific to males, but I can definitely see myself in this category.
